Tip is not included in the bill in Europe, I can tell it's not in Germany
2 comments

30% is a ridiculous tip in Europe, also in Germany.

Generally you round up, or give 10% if it's an occasion.

Same in Austria. Most people tip here just like in Eastern Europe.
You are correct, I was sloppy (and also underinformed and curious).

I should have said "service is included".

Which I (with my temporarily bruised ego) think means that the standard +10-20% that you apply in US it not really expected.
